Hebrew translation:
Tikkun 70 – 95
(Continue from DZ 989)
The roots of all face, body markings and colors are in Keter, Chokmah and Binah.
Lines are the aspect of the right column, Chessed and the Lion from the holy Throne. Shapes are the aspect of left, Gevurah and Ox. Colors (not always visible) are the aspect of different energy types, the aspect of central column, Tiferet and Eagle of the Holy throne.
They become visible in the lower level that is the place of the Shechina in the image of Adam. The spiritual forces revealed below in markings on the face, hands and body are concealed forms of the light that the individual carries inside or is connected to.
Exodus 33:23
“ וַהֲסִרֹתִי, אֶת-כַּפִּי, וְרָאִיתָ, אֶת-אֲחֹרָי; וּפָנַי, לֹא יֵרָאוּ ”
“And I will take away My hand, and you shall see My back; but My face shall not be seen.’ ” The ‘back’ of the light is the aspect of concealment. The ‘face’ is revelation.
God is telling Moses that he can see his back, but not his face. As created beings, we can not see our Creator as long as we are in forms of vessels. A vessel is light that is different from its surrounding light and has a desire for a specific identity.
In this section, the Zohar explains that our hands are the aspect of the Tree of Life.
Thumb – Keter
Index Finger – Chokmah
Middle finger – Binah
Ring finger – Zeir Anpin (6 Sefirot of Chessed, Gevurah, Tiferet, Netzach, Hod and Yessod)
Little finger (pinky) – Malchut
The actions of the hands are the aspect of the fruits of the Tree. Positive actions like Tzedakah, helping others, sharing and similar are registered in the palm of the hands.
By reading the hands we can tell if a person is doing kind actions or negative or if he is slave to his nature, doing good and bad as it happens to be on his path.
Isaiah 5:2
“וַיְקַו לַעֲשׂוֹת עֲנָבִים, וַיַּעַשׂ בְּאֻשִׁים”
“and he looked that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth wild grapes”
The positive light drawn down doing good actions remain on the hands and bring blessing to the person. The energy of negative actions will corrupt even if they are the results of positive intentions.
Do not use your hands for any negative action and wash your hands each time you touch negative things even if they are not visibly dirty.
To draw the blessing of Tzedaka, meditate using L’shem Yichud (DZ 980 http://dailyzohar.com/?p=8068) .
Meditate that what you give is the י Yod of the name because everything comes from the Light. The hand with 5 fingers is the aspect of the letter H ה, the conscious of the giving act is the aspect of the letter ו Vav that is like a stretch of the hand. The actual giving is the aspect of the letter ה H of Malchut. With that, the light comes down and sweetens the judgments.
The connection and faith in the light is also considered as Tzedaka because it connects the light and the vessel. People that dedicate their lives like Abraham in the verse below are also considered to make the action of Tzedakah with their connection.
Genesis 15:6
“וְהֶאֱמִן, בַּיהוָה; וַיַּחְשְׁבֶהָ לּוֹ, צְדָקָה”
“And he believed in the LORD; and He counted it to him for righteousness (Tzedakah).”
Rabbi Nissim Peretz זצ”ל of blessed memory explained that a coin, פרוטה, פרט has numerical value of רפח with the kolel (adding 1 for the whole). רפח is 288 that represents the world of Tikkun.
Every single action that we do with pure hands and for the sake of connecting the light and the vessel, Shechina, is Tzedaka, one coin or millions of them. Everyone should do Tzedaka on the spiritual and physical levels as much as they can to bring blessings to their hands.

“Do not use your hands for any negative action and wash your hands each time you touch negative things even if they are not visibly dirty.”
Zion, would you please give us examples of negative things we may touch with our hands? Thank you and Shalom.
Negative touches are all that make you feel uncomfortable. Even a hand shake with a negative person is not good. dead bugs, mouse or even if you see dead animal by the side of the road. Open your senses to i and you will feel it.
Important to wash hands before eating. We want to transform the physical energy to positive spiritual and spiritually dirty hands could corrupt the type of energy coming to us from the food.
I always wash my hands when I step into the bathroom, even if I just enter for a moment to take something out.
Do you have to wash also if you hear some bad news and it makes you feel contaminated?

Thanks Zion. So if Moses couldn’t see the Creator’s face, what does the Torah mean when it says that Moses spoke to G-d “face-to-face”?
Chag Sameach & Chodesh Tov!
- Joshua
Great question Lloyd. These were in different situations. In Exodus 33:11 Moses speaks to God face to Face because he was outside the camp, disconnected from the people after the sin of the Golden Calf.
Later Moses came back into the camp with the people that did the sin. Moses ask God to see his ‘Honor’, which means showing the light of Mercy to forgive the people but God couldn’t do that because the sin created a disconnection and concealment of the light.
If we are pure in out actions we can see the light easily but if not then its get ‘darker’ in our lives.
Thanks again for the question.
PS. In the Mount Sinai event, God spoke to everyone face to face, meaning with full revelation of the light.

Zion will G’d speak to us again face to face?
Shabbat Shalom

When we see the third Holy Temple, everyone will see the glory of God. The experience will be even better than what we had in the Mount Sinai event of receiving the Torah.
So I guess thats why it says that many people’s soul left them and they died. Then they told Moshe that they didn’t want to speak to God directly, but that he (Moshe) should and they would speak to him. The revelation of God was too much for them…as it would be for us also today.
Chodesh Tov & Shabbat Shalom to all the DZ family!
- Joshua
P.S. To all the DZ family…as of today, I will begin to use my Hebrew name of Joshua.
Thaknk you Zion & Lloyd

Grateful for that,
Love and blessings to all,
Shalom Zion,
very beautiful, many thanks,
this has much to do with the month of Elul / Virgo wich is ripe for us to do a very detailed cleaning in our lives:
“Every single action that we do with pure hands and for the sake of connecting the light and the vessel, Shechina, is Tzedaka, one coin or millions of them. Everyone should do Tzedaka on the spiritual and physical levels as much as they can to bring blessings to their hands.”
Chodesh tov and Shabat Shalom to all full of Endless Light,
Lea
Shalom Alehem Zion Nefesh, sobretodo gracias por compartirnos los tesoros que Hashem le concede ya que el los concede al que los busca.
Pregunto si en el lavado de las manos rige algún poder oculto si le agregamos alguna bendición o simplemente so lavarse las manos? Shalom Shalom Ziom.
please meditate for the soul elevation

What’s the point of doing Tzedka if all a person is interested in is ‘buying’ blessings from God? I thought the whole point was not to expect anything in return.
Hi Chris
A mitzvah is a mitzvah, it doesn’t matter what the hidden intentions are. If you keep doing the mitzvah one day you will feel the holiness about it and will only do it for the sake of doing the mitzvah and to sanctify Hashem’s will.
Another good reason is that giving money away is sadly unnatural to humans nature, our nature is too keep everything to ourselves and only to think about our own well being. With giving charity you crush your evil inclination and animal soul and become more like our creator who gives unconditional love and charity.
Hope that helps.
Love and light

Thank you Daliah for that.
Thanks Daliah, that makes sense.
With the act of tzedaka you don’t buy blessings. The meditation of L’shem Yichud making sure that the consciousness of the act is about unification of light and vessel. We became a channel for the light and that merit us having blessings in our lives.
Doing tzedaka while expecting something in return is lowering the level of the act and it’s benefits. It is still positive act because it helps the receiver regardless of the consciousness of the giver.
Thanks Zion, that’s what I suspected all along.
Thank you Zion! Good lesson! Let us be a blessing to every creation we meet each and every day! ‘Love G0D with all your strength and being and love others as you yourself would like to be loved.’ Love can cover (heal) a multitude of sins.
Deseo que la Luz ilumine su nuevo camino de Denise Esther Cremnitzer y camine en Paz a su nuevo Destino
Amen
Zion… I just want to tell u i’m so grateful with the knowledge you are sharing about Zohar…
Thank you Rajel and all the many that study the Daily Zohar for giving it sound…
